Arlington Stakes Contest - Race 1

[brianwspencer]

In lieu of Miraja's witty contest remarks, which will no longer be at my expense now that I'm nowhere near the lead, I've totaled the payoffs for this past weekend's Prairie State Festival. Feel free to check your payoffs and I can edit accordingly.

A little business first -- and this is pending Miraja's approval as that one created the contest. I did pull up the original contest thread, and there was no mention of having to split entries and pick a specific horse, so I used regular wagering rules that a bet on either part of the entry counted as a bet on the entire entry (and that counts for exotics as well, Buffy! as long as Miraja says it's okay ).

And it appears Avance did not get the memo after posting his picks, so I translated them for him using the original post's "program numbers," so that he didn't get totally shut out...once again, pending Miraja's decision on how cutthroat we want to be.

Huge congrats to DerbyCat, who took a huge lead now thanks to a wonderfully played Pick-3 and hitting half of the trifecta that got kicked into the stratosphere by Lady Lionel sucking up into fourth to claim the kicker slot in that exotic in the Lincoln Heritage.
